Joining in the online commentary over how poorly President Joe Biden did during the debate, particularly as regards his keeping it together and not looking like he was having major cognitive issues or unable to function in a public or semi-public setting, was conservative actor James Woods, who took to X to call out the president’s poor performance.
In his post, he argued that President Biden simply has too many major cognitive issues to function as president, a point that has been made by others, such as former White House Doctor Ronny Jackson. Woods also said that though he loathes the current Democratic Party, them trying to prop up Biden makes him dislike them all the more.
He wrote, commenting on the matter of Biden’s issues, “There’s no way whoever is in charge of this presidency didn’t know this man was suffering from serious cognitive challenges. I loathe today’s Democrats, but when they can manage to make me feel sorry for Joseph Biden, they are more than loathsome. They are beyond reproach.”
Commenters chimed in as well to make their dislike of Biden known. One, for example, said that Biden should not be shown sympathy from those who know how bad he is, writing, “Don’t feel sorry for him. Remember what he is – a lifelong plagiarist, liar, racist, predator who committed treason by selling out our nation. No sympathy at all.” Agreeing, another added, “He ruined the life of an innocent man, repeatedly limning him as a drunk driver who killed his wife. His wife pulled out in front of the truck driver. Probably b/c she was married to Joe.”
Others said there should be no sympathy for Biden as well, saying things like “I feel sorry for his daughter who waited to shower in the middle of the night because she was afraid of him. I have no sympathy for him whatsoever. He and Jill deserve one another” and “I just don’t get that even some of the brighter people, like James, don’t get this. If the shoe was on Trumps foot, they wouldn’t give him an inch!”
In another post about the debate, Woods said, “The Gordian Knot strangling the Democrats at this moment is the original sin they committed to get Biden elected: Kamala Harris. They can’t dump an Indian/Black woman for a greasy white grifter (you-know-who) to replace Biden. They brought this nightmare to their own doorstep.”
Biden did indeed do poorly during the debate. In fact, he did so badly that Trump was able to put together this hilarious compilation of his worst moments from the night that lasted for over a minute and a half despite being just brief clips. Watch it here:
Trump, commenting on the debate in a post on Truth Social, wrote, “As I walked off the stage on Thursday night, at the end of the highly anticipated “Debate,” anchors, political reporters and all screamed that I had had the greatest debate performance in the long and storied history of Presidential Debates. They all said, effectively, “Trump was fantastic!” This theme was universal, even at CNN & MSDNC, but by Friday evening it was all about the poor performance of Crooked Joe, and not so much about how well I did. Oh well, that’s the way it is but, importantly, the result is the same!!!”
